Chapter 35 Outcome of Deliberations
The moon belonging to Moira had crept over the towering Breitshin Mountains, casting its immaculate light on the desert Central Boulevard. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoWhen night comes, if you look down from the sky, the entire Central Avenue is painted with a layer of inky black, and the large and small territories scattered throughout the Central Avenue are like stars dotting this beautiful land. If it weren't for the half of the moon still hanging high in the sky, it would really be impossible to tell which side is the starry sky and where is the earth.
However, the people of Stauffen were not in the mood to look up at the beautiful scenery, and this once peaceful and peaceful town had now been transformed into a purgatory on earth.
Countless demon dogs roam the long streets of the town in groups, and the townspeople who should now return home to unite with their families after a tiring day's work are either crying and being chased by the dogs or have been buried under the minions of the monsters of the other world.
When Haredik and the others entered the city, the originally bustling streets were covered with corpses torn to pieces by the Demon Dogs, and the stomachs and skulls of each corpse were cut open by the claws and fangs of the Demon Dogs, and these demonic beasts from the other world also burrowed their greedy mouths into the corpses, swallowing the organs and brains of the deceased into their stomachs.
Although the knights in charge of guarding Staufen's territory are still resisting these monsters that have invaded their homeland, these knights who usually only persuade husbands and wives to quarrel or catch some drunken ghosts in taverns are no match for these murderous otherworldly monsters, and can only rely on some narrow terrain to engage in sporadic entanglement with demon dogs.
The horrors of the town were watched by the people of the baths through the windows, and the hellish scene was not to mention the timid maids, and even some of the male servants fell to the ground in fright and cried out in despair.
Han Long looked away from the window, and he heard the sound of wooden pieces breaking from the door that had been being hit by the Demon Dog, and a shield-sized door panel was knocked open by the Demon Dog outside the door, and a Demon Dog with a fierce look in his eyes wanted to squeeze in through the newly opened gap.
Xiu Qi and Han Long immediately greeted at this time, and worked together to kill this demon fighting dog, and then turned his head and said to everyone with a nervous expression: "This door will not hold up sooner or later, is there any safe place in this hotel?!"
Han Long's words were said to the innkeeper, but the fat white boss shrank under a table at this time, hugged himself together with both hands, looked at the floor in front of him with empty eyes, and muttered in his mouth: "I will die, I will die, I will die here, everyone will die here......
Seeing the innkeeper's appearance, Haredith walked over in two steps and three steps, kicked the table away, then grabbed the innkeeper by the collar and lifted him up, slammed it against the wall, and put his head on his forehead and whispered, word by word, "Where is the safest place in this inn!"
The innkeeper, whose collar was pulled and his back was slammed against the wall, was still confused, and he screamed at the drow elf in front of him, "We're going to die!
Haredith slammed his forehead into the innkeeper's nose to stop his pig-killing screams, and asked again, "Where's the safest place in this inn?"
At this time, the innkeeper seemed to have just come to his senses, he covered his bleeding nose, and said hesitantly: "Wine cellar, we have an underground wine cellar in the backyard. ”
Haredith let go of the innkeeper and let him fall to the ground, then looked at Hanlon and the others. Han Long also walked over and said, "Where is that wine cellar?
"It's right in the backyard, near the edge of the small courtyard. ”...,
Hearing this, Han Long's eyebrows twisted and began to fall into deep thought, he beckoned Xiu Qi and several other high-ranking knights, gathered together and began to discuss something.
Haredith noticed that the innkeeper was carrying a longbow on his back, and judging by the texture of the bow arm and bow, it was still a good longbow. The drow elf rolled his eyes at this time, and then turned to the innkeeper with a thought, "The bow is good. ”
"Huh?" the innkeeper, whose nose was still aching, didn't quite understand what Haredith meant.
"Give me your bow. "At this time, Drow is nimble like a ruffian bully.
"What are you talking about! I don't want it!" the innkeeper clung to his longbow and sat on the ground with his ass backing away.
"Do you know how to shoot arrows?"
"No, it won't, but ......"
"No, it's useless for you to hold it, this one for you, give me the bow, or do you want to get a second blow to your nose?" said Haredith, tossing the other dagger from his waist to the innkeeper and viciously.
Under the coercion and temptation of the drow elves, the innkeeper finally reluctantly handed over the longbow and quiver to Haredik, who took the longbow and pulled the bowstring a few times, and it was indeed a good bow. At this time, the temporary meeting of the knights had also been held, and Han Long walked up to everyone and said with a serious expression: "Okay, everyone, the situation is like this, this gate will not be able to be kept sooner or later, if these monsters outside the door rush in, we will all die here, so we must break out, and the target is the underground cellar of this hotel." ”
Han Long's words immediately attracted a wave of opposition, and a manservant jumped out and shouted: "Rush out! Are you crazy! I won't accompany you to die!"
The man's words won the approval of many people, and Han Long said to the manservant with an expressionless face: "If you don't want to leave, I won't force you, but when this door is opened, those demon dogs rush in, you will die, so if you want to stay and wait for death, you can do whatever you want." ”
As soon as these words came out, they immediately blocked the mouths of those left-behind factions, they closed their mouths, and stared at Han Long with some resentment, Han Long ignored the eyes of these people, walked to the Baroness, and said as if asking for her opinion: "Madame?"
"I'll go with you, my children are still waiting for me, I can't stay here!" said the Baroness firmly.
"We will do our best to protect you and your young lady. Hearing the Baroness's words, Han Long smiled reassuringly.
But Haredith, who was standing aside with a longbow on his back, said, "I'm not going with you." ”
"What!" Han Long and Xiu Qi said in unison, but Xiu Qi's face was surprised, and Han Long's face was questioned.
"Hiding isn't the solution, I need to figure out what all this is all about. The Drow pulled out the scimitar, checking through the lamp hanging on the wall to see if it had been damaged in the fierce battle.
"You mean to go out to find Lord Sarretor?!Don't you see what it's like outside?" said Xiuqi.
"Maybe it's the warlock named Saretol, maybe it's the warlock deacon next to the lord, or whatever, whoever it is, must find that person for this disaster to subside. As for me, I've survived ten times more dangerous places, so there's no need to worry about me. Hareddik shrugged his shoulders and thrust his knives back into their sheaths.
"Then I'll go with you, and many people will take care of whatever they say. Xiuqi said.
Haredik waved his hand and rejected Xiuqi's kindness and said, "No need, I'm used to being alone, and it's very convenient for me to fight or retreat alone, but many people are tied up." ”...,
Xiu Qi was about to say something but was interrupted by Han Long behind him, Han Long said at this time: "Xiu Qi, you go to protect the lady and the young lady, as for Mr. Guide, I will go with you." ”
Hearing Hanlon's words, Hareddick tightened his eyes, and a slightly sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "I just said, I'm used to being alone......"
"You need my help, you better believe it!" Han Long pulled his sword out of its sheath with a grim face, reminding the Drow elves of their superior martial arts or warning the other party.
Haredith stared at Han Long's eyes, and Han Long was not to be outdone and glared back at each other, between the two who had always gotten along well, this somewhat tense atmosphere suddenly appeared, which made Xiu Qi and the others a little confused.
"Okay. After a moment of silence, Haredik spat out a word that ended the standoff between the two. At this point, the Drow Elf raised his head slightly, and most of his face was obscured by the shadows cast on the pillar next to him, making it impossible to see what his expression was.
Han Long snorted with satisfaction, put the long sword into the sheath and said to Xiu Qi beside him, who was a little at a loss: "Wait a minute, I will rush out with the elves first, help you attract the attention of some enemies, and then you will take the opportunity to break through......"
"But it's only two of you, and it's too dangerous, Sergeant Major. ”
"Don't you believe in my strength?"
"No, it's not, Sergeant Major, it's just ......"
When Hanlon had some arguments with Xiuqi, Beata walked up to Haredith and pulled his clothes, and said with a worried and reluctant face, "Mr. Nemo, aren't you going with us?"
Haredith looked at the bloodied Beatta, reached out and wiped the blood off the noble girl's face with his cuffs, and then said, "Yes, I must find out the cause of all this, or none of us will want to get out of this territory alive." ”
Hearing this, the little girl lowered her head very sadly, still clutching Haredith's clothes in her hands.
"Listen to the little ghost......" Harleydik crouched down and looked at Beatta, searching for some words to reassure the noble girl.
But before Haredith could speak, Beata had already raised her head, took out a small wreath of flowers from her pocket, put it on Haredik's hand, and said, "If you are going, please put this on, and the gods will bless you." ”
Hareddik raised his arm and looked at the prayer ring on his wrist and smiled, "I will, thank you." ”
Then he glanced down at the dagger in Beata's hand, held it up in his hand along with Beata's petite palm, and said, "Hold this dagger tightly, remember that it is the only thing that can save your life when you are in danger, and remember what I taught you?"
"Remember!" Beata nodded fiercely and said, "The first target is the neck, and the second target is the eyes." ”
"Good girl. Haredith said with a smile and patted Beata's pink cheek.
Han Long, who was on the side, seemed unwilling to see his young lady so close to Haredik, so he ended his conversation with Xiuqi and stepped forward and said, "Elf, it's time for us to go. ”
